Financial Aid Information for
Concurrently Enrolled Students

The school from which the student will be receiving financial aid is identified as the home school. the institution that is not disbursing aid is identified as the host school. The student will follow these procedures at the host school: At the host school, the student will register for classes and is responsible for paying tuition and fees in full. The student will then bring the tuition and fees receipt to the Financial Aid Office and get a Letter of Consortium, which is then taken to the home school Financial Aid Office of the student. The following procedure will then take place at the home school: Once the Letter of Consortium has been processed at home school, the student's financial aid will then be adjusted after 12th class day.
